RIES

Fashioned to include a majestic bird featuring the colours of SANZEA’S inaugural four nations, it is a symbol of beauty, flight, power, strength, precision, and movement with grace and breadth (wing span), wisdom and experience (all seeing).

Named Victorious, she takes her influence from an eagle - a recognised symbol of vision, leadership and strength.

The association with a bird of prey of such power and dominance, beauty and grace; the sleek lines represent Victorious’ intelligence, ability to soar and keen sight.

She is seen as a visionary who is willing to push the limits of self and team and is summoned when about to embark on a challenge – the challenge of the Netball Quad Series.

HOW THE TROPHY IS DECIDED

Win: 2 pointsDraw: 1 point* Loss: 0 points*only if match is unable to be

completed

All matches must play to an outright result.

If teams are tied on points at the end of the Series, the winner is decided by the greater goal percentage (calculated to two decimal places).

Goal % = total goals scored / total goals scored against x 100

If the teams are still tied, then goal difference will decide their ranking.

Goal difference = goals for – goals against (from all matches played)

After goal difference, the highest number of goals scored for will determine the winner of the Netball Quad Series.

In the event that both teams scored an equal number of goals, the series will be declared a draw.
